Creating a reservation in the Amadeus System requires several mandatory elements and allows for numerous optional elements to be added. An individual API transaction exists to create each element of a reservation. Instead of creating the reservation with a transaction for each reservation element, the AddMultiElements transaction has been developed to facilitate more efficient communication by allowing numerous reservation elements to be created at one time.

This powerful transaction provides the capability to create an entire reservation within the Amadeus System with one single communication call between the Proxy and the API Gateway.

Evidently, not all the Elements and Segments will be available for use on the API test system immediately, due to parallel testing on the Amadeus HOST system that drives each transaction.

Consequently, there will be a progressive introduction of the Elements and Segments over the coming months on the API system, accompanied by on-line help and documentation on how to use them!
